Okay, first of all... AHHHHHHHHH!!!! Second, what?! A sudden call from a missing friend... that's clearly Evelyn, but how?! Everyone else Angelica has body jumped has died because it's the only way Angelica can do it because only one soul can inhabit a body. We've known this since Ravenhearst Unlocked because of Ellen Hornebolt pushing the piece of Alister's soul of Tanatos, and we clearly know that everyone Angelica possessed died. So... how is she contacting the detective? Is it a trick? Is it yet another trap at Ravenhearst? Or is Evelyn somehow reaching out as a ghost or temporarily got her body back somehow?! So many questions! What is happening?! One thing is for sure... we're going to Ravenhearst... some version of it, at least. The current version of it is now the agency headquarters. Maybe there will be time travel craziness again, and it is a different version of Ravenhearst from another timeline, or maybe Angelica is causing problems at headquarters! There's so many possibilities!

There is more information on the Ravenhearst wiki about this game, but before we jump into that, I wanna talk about this!⬇️

Pardon my language, but fucking excuse me?! That's the Forever Home from Escape From Ravenhearst! Huh?! What?! How?! Why?! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

It's most definitely the Forever Home because that is the organ Charles was playing, Victor was dancing like an idiot next to him, and then up those stairs, Emma, Rose, Gwendolyn and Charlotte were hooked up to the machine after they were brought back to life! How does it even exist?! In the original timeline, it was burned down, and in this timeline, it doesn't even exist because Emma went back to the United States so Rose never had to come be her maid, so she and her daughters didn't get kidnapped, Charles was sent back to the asylum and Ravenhearst was never finished so it became agency headquarters! So what does this mean?! Is this something that exists in another timeline?! Is this proof about what I said about this involving some time travel nonsense again?! Holy AHHHHHHHHH!!!

That's not all! There's more details to note from this image! First, there are two ravens in this image. There's one on the left-hand side of the organ and one on the left side of the title. Interestingly enough, the raven on the title is also sitting on Emma's Locket. You can see the golden heart beneath it.

Speaking of Emma, there are at least three potentially four pictures of Emma in this room! There's one on the wall to the left of the organ. There's a second one on the floor in front of the organ that's quite large and obvious. There's a third one a little to the left of the second one.

The fourth one is not as obvious, and I may be wrong about it, but I believe there is a fourth one located to the left of the stairs on the wall! Is Emma gonna be featured in this, or is this referencing Evelyn because she is Emma's great-granddaughter and a dead ringer for Emma?! It could quite literally be either one, but with it being the Forever Home featured here, I'm leaning more towards Emma, but why and how?! Is it a time travel thing, or is Angelica pulling something?! Oh my God!

Now, there is a bit more information known that needs to be discussed regarding this game that was on the Ravenhearst wiki.

Let's go through this piece by piece.

First, it says:The game's title, House That Love Built, is an explicit reference to Ravenhearst Manor's motto engraved on its front porch entrance, first seen in Return To Ravenhearst.

This is what I said a bit ago but in a bit more detail. This is definitely gonna be a Ravenhearst centered game in some fashion.

Next it says: The game's logo features a raven and Emma's Locket.

Again, it is just reiterating what I said earlier. It really does make me wonder why they are featured, though. I really can't wait.

Then it says: This is the first game since Ravenhearst Unlocked ten years prior to feature a raven in the game icon.

A whole decade since the last game that featured a raven as the icon... man, this makes me feel old. Yes, there have been appearances by the Dalimars since then, but the point being made here is games that actually feature a raven as the icon hasn't been a thing again in ten years, so this is very possibly gonna be a major plot point in the Ravenhearst storyline because all of the ones before that had it, Ravenhearst, Return to Ravenhearst, Escape From Ravenhearst, Key To Ravenhearst and Ravenhearst Unlocked, you know all of the ones with the word Ravenhearst actually in their titles, had the biggest, most important plot points and overall storylines compared to the other games featuring the Dalimars. Yes, the other games featuring them had important plot points, but the most important ones were in those. I'm getting off track here. My point is... the raven is a big deal!

The next piece of information says: This game's beta was released only a few weeks after the beta of Fragments of Truth: An MCF Story released. Both betas were released before the latter was even fully released, marking the first time two MCF-related games' betas released before either one fully released. This is likely due to the case that Fragments of Truth is a spin-off, not a mainline game.

Very true. Fragments of Truth is a spin-off and House That Love Built is part of the main series. They're likely also releasing the betas at the same time because, despite being a spin-off, I bet you anything that Fragments of Truth and House That Love Built have connecting storylines since they both take place after Evelyn was body jacked by Angelica and they need the storyline to happen consecutively. They clearly won't be directly related because you're playing as two different detectives, rookie in Fragments of Truth and Master Detective in House That Love Built, but it is the same universe, same point in time so there will likely be some overlap or vague reference somewhere. It would be kinda cool if the rookie got a letter from the Master Detective or was trained by them in some fashion. That would be a nice way to tie them together so they won't feel so disjointed but we will see. Honestly, on another note, after 20 years, you'd think we'd get the Master Detective's name(rather than everyone just calling them Detective or Master Detective) or gender(since different pronouns have been used) or at least their appearance beyond just seeing their back or everything but their face from the front but no! I know it's meant to be "the Detective is you" or "the Detective is whoever you want them to be" but still. Answers are required here! Two decades and still nothing! Sigh... one can only hope. But my point is connecting the spin-off to the main game by having a letter from the Master Detective or the rookie was trained by them would be cool!

Last bit of information to glean from this wiki is the timelines. We have the whole Ravenhearst Saga and how it broken down into the eras. House That Love Built is the thirteenth game in the overall Ravenhearst Saga and the third game in the New Timeline Arc.

The whole Ravenhearst saga is as such:

Charles Arc: Ravenhearst, Madame Fate, Return to Ravenhearst and Escape From Ravenhearst

Alister Arc: Fate's Carnival, Dire Grove Sacred Grove, Key To Ravenhearst and Ravenhearst Unlocked

Interlude:Rewind and Crossfade

New Timeline Arc:The Dalimar Legacy, The Riddle of Mrs. Bishop and House That Love Built

I can't wait for more information to drop on this one! I'm pretty sure since the spin-off is dropping this summer, House That Love Built is gonna be dropping in November around Thanksgiving which is the usual for releases! I can't wait! Ahhhh!
